Services We Provide:

Listed here are the top services we give to our clients.

AdBlue In Diesel

All around County Durham we are identifying increasingly more occurrences of AdBlue contamination where a motorist has put AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is mainly due to people being unsure of the right way to use it (be aware: it's not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are typically right next to each other on the automobile.

So, what exactly is the matter with putting AdBlue in the diesel car? Since AdBlue is mainly ionised water, it is as bad as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not mix at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. In addition, the urea is incredibly corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and filters.

If perhaps you have put AdBlue into your fuel tank get it drained at once. And of course take care not to switch on the car - not even to move it off the pump. In the instance that you have started the car you will very likely need to have the entire fuel system cleaned and filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is undoubtedly an important issue to handle in a motor vehicle - especially in current day common-rail engines. Water in petrol or diesel will often result in idling problems, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it is not remedied fully, oftentimes blown injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to clean out when compared with water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to deal with both cases rather quickly.

You should know however that as long as the vehicle was started on the fuel contaminated with water it will likely need a new fuel filter to be installed as the old one will be wholly water-logged and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you find you have the wrong fuel, or dirty fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help remove it. Providing the boat is either on land, or secured close to parking bay we will be able to access the fuel storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We've performed numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.}

We've been called out to several domestic and industrial properties in County Durham for the purpose of removing and recycling fuel storages.

Vehicle Misfuel Boldron - Boldron Wrong Fuel in Car

I'd had a wonderful evening cycling during my off day and felt satisfied the next working day as I set out to assist a new family who were holidaying in Boldron. They had stopped after adding diesel into their Peugeot, and the car was approximately an hour's travel away. I showed up at their position and laughed while I heard to the lady chastising her partner for actually being so daft. "Exactly how could you conceivably be able to fill the car up with the wrong fuel?" she demanded of him. I wanted to clarify that this takes place regularly in County Durham and that it's nothing to be concerned about, and yet he still had his ear bent by his wife. I felt genuine sympathy for the guy. Anyhow, I removed the wrong fuel, gave the fuel system a flush and gave it some appropriate fuel. While watching them drive off I waved goodbye and thought about what her indoors would say to me if I did the exact same thing... I would personally never ever live it down!
